The Yacht Sales Co is a major sponsor of the 2023 Brisbane to Hamilton Island Yacht Race, affirming its commitment to the continued growth of Asia Pacific’s sailing community.
The popular event hosted by the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron will start on Friday 4 August from its Brisbane base in Manly with the fleet competing across three divisions: Monohull, Monohull Double-Handed, and Multihull.
Traditionally a fiercely contested regatta, the Brisbane to Hamilton Island Yacht Race is one of Australia’s longest tropical Category 2 offshore yacht races with competitors reaching beautiful Hamilton Island in time for the start of the Whitsunday Race Week season.
The Yacht Sales Co. managing director Mark Elkington said the company was thrilled to be a major sponsor of this year’s event.
“We have a long and successful relationship with both The Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron and Hamilton Island, and it is extremely satisfying to be a major sponsor of this event that brings together these two exceptional organisations,” Mark said.
“As The Yacht Sales Co continues to grow, now with 15 Sales Centres across the Asia Pacific, we look forward to continuing our support for the industry through more opportunities such as this prestigious regatta,” he said.
The Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron will showcase full coverage of the event, and members of the public can track the yachts online throughout the race with details available at www.rqys.com.au/brisbane-to-hamilton-island-yacht-race.
